Merck KGaA and Jerini Announce Collaboration to Develop Small Molecule Cancer Drugs

29 Jan 2004 - Merck KGaA and Jerini AG announced a collaboration agreement to jointly develop small molecule inhibitors against an undisclosed target for oncology.

Under terms of the agreement, Jerini will receive an upfront payment, personnel funding, milestone payments, and royalties. Merck obtains worldwide rights for all indications in cancer, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and thyroid disorders. Jerini could receive in excess of EUR 50 million if the product is approved. Further financial details were not disclosed.
